Playing For You From Our Scented Cottage..

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

Blueberry Oat Applesauce Muffins



These are healthy muffins that are sweet, satisfying, moist, and perfect for breakfast or a snack. They freeze well so bake a double batch and put some away to enjoy at a later date.

Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cups oats
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup buttermilk (don't have any on hand? Check my archives and make your own!)
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tbsp canola oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen...if using frozen do not thaw)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Line muffin tins with paper muffin cups or spray with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl combine flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. In a medium bowl combine applesauce, buttermilk, brown sugar, oil and egg. Add applesauce mixture to dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened. Gently fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.

Bake for 16-18 minutes.

Yield: Approximately 12 muffins.

I am always on the lookout for healthy muffin recipes since they always make great additions to my family's brown bag lunches. This recipe looks great!
